Nope, the SP1's always had the triangular handguards. Gunshows are a good source for replacements & oyu might try looking in Gun List & Shotgun News newspapers for ads & website addresses. Hope this helps.

Thanks, Bob. The quest for original handguards begins!

I recently purchased a complete new Colt M-16A1 upper from CDNN. It must have been a foreign contract run since the receiver had a black finish. It also came with round (A2 type) hand guards. Otherwise it was indentical to the M16A1's I was issued in the USMC. I bought M-16A1 furniture from Northridge. The upper has been de-eviled and put on a RRA lower.

Thanks for the reply, Sukebe, I'll give Northridge a try in my seemingly endless search for triangle handguards. I've been looking all over the net for the past hour to no avail. I just posted in the "Wanted to Buy" section here, so maybe it'll pan out after all.

I looked at Northridge last week and they didn't advertise the M-16A1 stock sets anymore. They did have the butt stocks. I got mine about a month or so ago used for $19.00. It is used but in good condition, no cracks, or chips.

I just saw several sets at the gunshow for $10 a set... used but good. They were at the Sherluk booth... see what they have to say. They seemed like good people, and they had loads of parts in their inventory. I bought a set of M4 handguards from them.

fultonarmory.com northridgeinc.com I just bought a set at the show here in Houston and put them on last week. I installed them over my float tube, so took some serious sanding, but well worth the work!! |

Try Jeff at CMMG. I just bought some triangular handguards from him. He advertises in Equipment Exchange on this board.
